wine 32
by ToddAndMargo 16 Jan '18

16 Jan '18

Hi Kevin and EPEL, Is there any sign of EPEL 7 support for Wine 32 yet? The lack of Wine 32 is keeping me on SL 6.6 and it is starting to drive me nuts! EPEL: think of the guilt you would feel if I get stuck in an insane asylums over the lack of wine 32 support! Seriously, the guilt would haunt you to the end of your days. Okay, maybe not, but still ... Many thanks, -T Hey, I had to try. If guilt doesn't work, I am really good at insincere compliments too. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners.

new DNF for everyone
by Honza Silhan 12 Feb '17

12 Feb '17

Hi, DNF is in EPEL for more than one year, unfortunately there was still the old DNF-0.6.4 version. Over that time in DNF were implemented a lot of great features and plenty of bugs have been fixed. DNF (especially its libraries) could not be updated in EPEL repository because of its policy. Now we have prepared fresh DNF-1.1.9 for RHEL 7 and CentOS 7 users in our COPR repository [1]. In order to install DNF follow the instructions here [2].

What's the status of EPEL7 on i686? I haven't heard anything in a few months but last I heard EPEL was going to be trialed on antoehr alt-arch before i686, was this done yet and what's the current hold-up? Peter

python34 for EPEL6
by Orion Poplawski 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

I have no idea if there is any interest in this or not. I managed to get the EPEL7 python34 package to build on EL6 with a few modifications. Is there any interest in supporting this? -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.nwra.com

nodejs update
by Zuzana Svetlikova 12 Sep '16

12 Sep '16

Hi! As some of you may know, nodejs package that is present in EPEL is pretty outdated. The current v0.10 that we have will go EOL in October and npm (package manager) is already not maintained. Currently, upstreams' plan is to have two versions of Long Term Support (LTS) at once, one in active development and one in maintenance mode. Currently active is v4, which is switching to maintenance in April and v6 which is switching to LTS in October. This is also reason why we would like to skip v4, although both will get security updates. Nodejs v6 also comes with newer npm and v8 (which might best be bundled, as it is in Fedora and Software Collections) (v8 might concern ruby and database maintainers, but old v8 package still remains in the repo). There was also an idea to have both LTS versions in repo, but we're not quite sure, how we'd do it and if it's even a good idea. Also, another thing is, if it is worth of updating every year to new LTS or update only after the current one goes EOL. According to guidelines, I'd say it's the latter, but it's not exactly how node development works and some feedback from users on this would be nice, because I have none. tl;dr Need to update nodejs, but can't decide if v4 or v6, v4: will update sooner, shorter support (2018-04-01) v6: longer support (2019-04-01), *might* break more things, won't be in stable sooner than mid-October if everything goes well Also need feedback from users. I hope I didn't forget anything important. Regards Zuzka Node.js SIG

broken python2-multilib dependancy in latest koji package push for EL6
by B. Karhan 12 Sep '16

12 Sep '16

.the update koji-1.10.1-8.el6 has a require of python2-multilib which is only added to python-multilib-1.1-5.el6 (and later), so the parallel push of python-multilib-1.1-4.el6 does not satisfy the dependancy. the highest version of koji without the dependancy is koji-1.10.1-6.el6. B.

Upgrading Mono in Epel7
by Timotheus Pokorra 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

Hello, we are discussing in this bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220138 the work that would be required to upgrade Mono in Epel. I am aware that this is a major upgrade, and according to [1] it should be avoided. But Mono is that old in Epel7 already, so the discussion currently goes into the direction that an upgrade is better than nobody using Mono in Epel at all. I would like to upgrade to the latest stable Mono version, which is 4.2 at the moment. That is in rawhide already, F23 has Mono 4.0. What do people think on this list? Do I need to create a Fesco ticket to request permission to upgrade Mono in Epel7, and to do a bootstrap similar to Mono 4 in Fedora [2]? Thanks for any hints and suggestions, Timotheus [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/GuidelinesAndPolicies#A_major_version_u… [2] https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/528

Adding the devtoolset repo for EPEL builds
by Tom Callaway 31 Aug '16

31 Aug '16

Recently, I've been participating in some discussion as to how to enable C++11 support for EPEL builds. Specifically, R (and its large universe of addons in CRAN) would benefit significantly from C++11 support. After much discussion, it seems like the only sane way to do this is to use the Red Hat Developer Toolset (for el6 and el7). It is my understanding that all RHEL customers (and CentOS users) should be able to enable this repository without restrictions. I'd like to propose that we enable the Developer Toolset repo in EPEL and allow packages to depend on it. Thoughts? ~tom == Red Hat
